Well Jeff, I must say your images are simply stunning. I would be very much interested in your explanation of the mechanics behind each photo. It is pretty obvious that considerable thought was given to setting, placement, composition, timing, etc., in photos #1, 2 and 5.

And while I can honestly say that this sort of art is not really my "cup of tea," nonetheless, I can appreciate it for the artistic vision that it took to produce it.

I like them too, very strong, really eye opening, reminds me of the game Bioshock maybe? Shocked

Wow. These pictures would frighten the crap out of my kids. Gosh, they scare me! Shocked

As cooltouch put it, definitely not my kind of photography but a great work!

Thanks all for your very kind comments. I used a Pentax K20d and mostly my Pentax 12-24 lens, which is a rebadged Tokina with the Pentax SMC coating. It has truly lovely color. I also use a Tamron 17-50, in addition to my manual Soviet lenses. I rely on FDR tools to tone map my bracketed images. I try very hard not to overdo it. Always happy to answer questions.
Merry Christmas!

1, 3 and 5 do it for me, but I'm drawn to the background settings.

Many others know of my attraction to abandoned & decaying buildings, and I'd love to see any more like this you may have, Jeff.

Not my cup of tea either but photos very nicely taken with good control of lighting etc.

Jeff, you taking the photos for some magazine or something?
